"I just moved here from Florida."

That sentence contains at least five follow-up questions she WANTS you to ask. Where in Florida? What brought you here? How long have you been in the area? What do you miss? How does it compare to here?

She handed them to you on a silver platter. And you said, "Oh cool. I come here every week. I love this band. Ummm... pretty crowded tonight."

She smiled politely. Nodded. And never texted you back.

I was that guy for years. Talking too much. Listening too little. Panicking about my next sentence while she was literally feeding me the answers.

Then I found 22 rules that fixed the whole thing. Rule number one: shut up and listen. She'll tell you exactly what to say.

I know these can be risky. Anyone have any advice if you want to bang a chick at work.. no strings attached of course.. and ya know no awkwardness...
 

"The Coffee Shop Girl You Never Spoke To"

You've replayed it a hundred times. She stood three feet away, scrolling her phone. You had an opening. You composed the perfect line — after she was gone.

For all you know, she's married now. To some guy who said something. Anything.

Openers are cheap. Almost any sentence works when it's delivered within three seconds. The expensive part is the standing there, drafting and deleting, while the window quietly closes.

The "22 Rules" stripped out my hesitation. What to open with, how to keep it alive, and the one habit that costs guys more women than anything else: waiting for perfect.

Yeah,I have advice,DON'T DO IT. It happens at my job all the time,everyone knows each other's business and they try to get involved. The only way and only way you can get away with this,is if she is a slut.

I have advice it's like my good friend always says "don't do it just don't do it."(he yells this out for no reason) I wouldn't do it, I have tried it once, and long story short I'm here. But if you are a true dj go for, it may work out just dont' attach any emotional strings.

do a search on "delta" if you want to read about the daily, soul crushing nightmare that work has become for me....

i agree, don't do it. even though you're talking super casual now, you might develop feelings and then you are in trouble.
